Recently got back into 9innings, any tips?
I recently got back into playing this game and with all the various changes from when I last played, any tips as to increasing overall/gaining points/spending the various currencies would be very helpful!

Spam arcade
Just wondering, even if I'm only scoring like 150k each time, it's still worth spamming to level up for the level rewards correct? I can keep increasing that even if I'm not climbing the overall ranks?
The level rewards are where it’s at. Even though you’re probably unable to get to level 100, you can easily get half the rewards, which is pretty significant. That’s a lot of stars, condition drinks, and a few premium player packs.
Cool thanks. Just started yesterday after dropping nba live. If I'm not chasing an end game team but mostly just want to build up a team of players I like, should I just keep spamming arcade and play league matches otherwise?
I accidentally started my first league thing with the wildcard game and am about to win the nlcs. Did I mess up my chance of getting a good reward for finishing my first season since I didn't actually play a full/half season? Or can I just move onto that next? I've read something that your first season is your best chance to get a good reward.
You’ll get to move on. I do full seasons, but early seasons are probably good for farming achievements.
Couple tips on arcade mode. It is all about hitting homeruns. All of your strategy should be around hitting more homeruns. Yes, racking up bonus balls is important, but only because it adds an extra 40k-100k in the form of a homerun. Yes, running up the combos gives a small score boost, but the biggest reward for combos is getting the pitcher to pitch more pitches so that you can get more bonus balls so that you can hit an extra homerun. Basically, it's all about the homerun. If you have them to spare, use condition drink every single time to help with power.
Cool thanks. My 71 Gold Azuna only occasionally gets hrs even on perfect hits, so I think I need some better players.
It will get easier as you get better hitters. I also can't confirm this but I have felt like "great" contact gives a better chance at homeruns than "perfect" contact which seems to yield more line drives. You'll get a feel for what timing gives you the best results.
How do you recommend hitting more home runs? Sometimes I do better just tapping and other times I do better swiping up or left/right but I haven't found anything which seems to work better consistently.
I also tried with a hitter with less power but a big time slugging ability, that did not work at all.
I use my highest power player and honestly I swipe down every swing. Works for me to an extent (usually Silver I rank)
